2 January - What I'm Thankful for Today

It's early, but I need to get off the computer. I'm feeling worse by the minute. I'm drinking lemon ginger tea, and I have turkey soup. It might not be chicken, but it should do the same thing. I hope.
So, here is what I'm thankful for today.
I'm thankful for the nine hours of sleep I got last night. I'm sure it is because I'm not feeling good, but for whatever reason, it was good to sleep in. That meant I was up at 6:15 this morning.
I'm thankful for the hot shower I took when I got up. It felt good and went a long way to making me feel almost normal.
I'm thankful for having the notifications finished. It was good to catch up with you after not being here much yesterday.
I'm thankful I called my hair stylist to find out when my appointment is. Next week. I thought it was this week. I lost the appointment card.
I'm thankful for my recliner and a new series on Tubi. I finished watching Smallville on Hulu last year and hoped I could watch Lois and Clark. It started yesterday. I'll watch the next episode today as I relax in the recliner.
Okay, that's my day and why I'm thankful. What are you thankful for today? Thanks for reading.

I love recliners too. I am sorry you are not feeling good. I hope it was not something you ate or was it coming on for a long time? I hope the soup helps you. Yes, chicken soup is good for what ails one but if this soup works you can start a new trend. I am glad for all you are thankful for. I am thankful that I can get up in the morning and for my cat that I have. She is quite a companion and keeps me on my toes.

Thank you. No, it was sudden. I canceled appointments I had for today, including the exercise class as I have the tapes and the other person, I was going to give them to wasn't going to be there this morning. So, I called another person and let her know I couldn't do the exercise class this morning. I had a chiropractor appointment this morning. I rescheduled it for next week.
I'm glad your cat is a good companion.

Sorry to hear that you're not feeling well. I hope you don't have what I have (some sort of upper respiratory congestion, cough, etc.).

@Marilynda1225 It's not. I'm glad Alexa understood me when I asked her to play Christian music.

@just4him He wants me to drive. He had a sore throat and a cough; so they cancelled his surgery. Will have to reschedule.

So many people have stated that they are not feeling good. What a way to start the new year. Hope you are feeling better real soon. Nice that you have a comfy recliner.

I am so sorry that you are not feeling well.
I can relate just trying to get rid of this myself.
Rest, and drink lots, and I know that sounds silly especially when you hear it so often, and you are a registered nurse, so know well enough, but it does help.

I'm thankful for the new year to make it a great one. My kids, grandkids, the ice tea I'm drinking from Dutch Bros and the gift card that I was able to use. Thankful for my friends and for God that still loves me when I'm in a temper tantrum or losing faith.
